Pentax/Samsung Owners: It's Bargain Time For You - Oops, I made a booboo...

Ahoy!

Thought you Sigma and Pentax/Samsung owners could do with a bit of a bargain heads-up.

Check this out for Pentax/Samsung mount. Same model and price for anyone using the Sigma mount.

They're the non-DG coated versions (I had the exact same version for my Sony) and it's a superb lens. At this price, it's one of the greatest bargains going. Add a Sigma 1.4x TC and you're away! I paid more than this for my USED example, so at this price . . . wow! Bear in mind that the DG coated version is £1124.99 for Pentax K-mount from these people (maybe cheaper elsewhere).

Sony/Minolta DG coated version here (and this is the BEST price I can find it for, even by eBay standards), and compared to the equivalent model for all other mounts, is also a deal in itself.

Sigma don't use the same K mount as Pentax and Samsung
They use a very close variant but its not compatible.

Pity becuase I would have had one in a shot.

I know, I amended the post to avoid confusion.

Now I am totally confused.
You still mention Pentax and Samsung in the main body of the post (I know nothing can be done about the title) when it won't fit either.

Mods. Please close thread.
